Feeling Crafty

Last night, GinaMarie and I were feeling crafty, so after work, we got together at my place for some hot apple cider and scrapbooking. As mentioned in a recent blog, I've been wanting to make a page about fall, since it's my absolute favorite season.

I decided to use product from the Love, Elsie Jack + Abby line from KI Memories. I felt the colors worked wonderfully for an autumn-inspired page, and I had fun mixing and matching all of the coordinating embellishments.

I'm happy with the end result. I like that I was able to incorporate an array of different colors, and the Love, Elsie accents were playful additions. I also loved using the fabric patterned paper.

When I started the page, I planned to include handwritten journaling with a few of my favorite fall memories. That changed, though, as the page neared completion. Instead, I ended up using a few key words: books, blankets, traditions, colors and memories. I cut the words from the back of the Jack + Abby Words patterned paper. I then used the American Crafts chipboard arrow to connect the title to the key words.
